TISA is concluding the information sessions focused on unpacking the OCOB report and link it to the promotion of accountability in counties. Key issues include: Isiolo; use of manual payroll, wage bill and the high pending bills. Meru; late submissions of implementation reports and illegal constitution of the ward planing cmmittees which was raised while unpacking the Flloca allocation. The CSOs committed to submit petitons and follow up for clarity. These session provide a learning platform to unpack information that trigger conversation on active citizenship, governance, budget tracking leading to civic actions geared to promote accountability and fight corruption. Read the OCOB report for your county and comment if you’re seeing similar patterns.
In the bid to continually equip CSOs with facts for social accountability, TISA convened CSOs from the Western and Rift Valley regions to analyse the Office of the Controller of Budget (OCOB) report and review their counties' financial trends. Key issues identified included the low absorption rate, especially for development, and its connection to own-source revenue, as well as the increasing pending bills.![]()

The regional learning forums have enabled the sharing of best practices, such as the costing reference in Baringo for water projects, as well as the formulation of proposals like end-to-end budgeting for projects. We believe these are all workable options in the fight against corruption. The community is becoming increasingly informed and engaged, actively advocating for better governance.
